As you know, my husband and I have both been working on swaps for the upcoming Stampin’ Up! Cruise… and as promised I am sharing the finished swaps with you.
This is the card my husband stamped for the Husband Card Swap! Don’t ya think he did an EXCELLENT job??
It has this great little diagonal pocket for a gift card or a special note!
The card is a 4"x12", scored at 4" and 8" (so it creates 3 equal 4×4 sections) then you score the middle section DIAGONALLY and you fold it up to get this great little card with a pocket! We learned how to make this card at the local Stampin’ Up! Regional Seminar.
ADDED:
Here are some step by step photos to help you fold this card design.. hope it’s helpful! Thanks for all your kind comments about Eric’s card.. he is enjoying reading them!
Oh.. and this is one of my little buddies who comes to beg for peanuts every day… sorry for the blurry photo.. I grabbed the camera and it was on the wrong setting.. wouldn’t you know it? oh well!
Oh my gosh! This is awesome. He rockin’ the stampin’!
Fantastic!! Good for him!!

Awesome card, Eric!! The colors are fantastic- the red really pops with the blues- TFS!!

He did an awesome job! Have a great time on cruise!
Eric, YOU ROCK!!! I would swap with you any day of the week. 🙂
Thanks to all of you for your kind words!!! As you must know by now, I must be the luckiest person in the world to be married to the most creative and sharing Stampin’ Up demonstrator in the company (IMHO)!! Thanks again.. you all are making me blush.. =)
He did a fabulous job.
Totally awesome card Eric – you and Patty make a fabulous team!! Have a great time on the cruise – and thanks for sharing pictures of how to fold the card too!
This is a great card! – the colors, design and supplied used – just awesome! I’m going to show my 12 yr old son who likes to stamp with me – he might just “case” this card!
Have a great time on the cruise!

Wow what a fabulous card!! How many do the husbands swap take? I can only imagine if my husband had to make as many as we did for convention, saying are you nutso?? He would long give up. I think it’s awesome h did that. I can get my hubby to help me sometimes too.
Great job, Eric! There’s a lot to be said for a hubby who joins in and supports his wife’s passion. Way to go! Enjoyed the picture of your furry buddy, too cute! Love our “wild” back yard residents! Enjoy the cruise! ej

Great job, Eric !!! You’d make a fantastic demo !!!! Looks like the squirrel wants to stamp too !!!! See….even the wildlife has heard of your amazing stamping !!! He’s probably waiting in line to sign up for one of your classes. 🙂
Thanks for a very cool patriotic card! I want to make one to send to my son who has just enlisted with the Marines. I’ll try to make one when I get his address from bootcamp. It’s great to have a masculine card that fits perfectly. You rock!
Great card, gotta show my hubby and ask if he could do this. Love your swap too! Have a wonderful time in Bermuda!
Thanks for the tutorial for your great card! I learned about your blog from JanTink’s blog.
